Through the falling rain, as far as the eye can see, there is a huge building complex on the edge of the giant sinkhole. Obviously, that building complex is the mining base, also known as the base.
In the base, towers rise from the ground, and various buildings line up in rows. On the roads built, you can vaguely see the vehicles and pedestrians passing by.
At this time, two small black spots appeared in the sky at some point. From far to near, one could faintly hear the whirring sound of the propellers.
It's a helicopter
In the sky, two helicopters circled down. On the ground, there was a lot of traffic, and the entire base looked busy.
The construction area of the entire base is large enough. According to visual inspection, it is no less than the area of 20 football fields. This does not include the area of the specially built airstrip.
Among the vast mountains and deep in the primeval forest, the appearance of such a huge artificial building complex and the naturally formed giant sinkhole complement each other and shock the eye. People have to lament the limits of human power and the huge
The miraculous craftsmanship of nature...
After descending from Huangtou Ridge, about halfway down the mountain path, a small platform appeared in front of you, and you could vaguely see a few figures moving around.
Everyone walked all the way from the barren mountains and ridges. In the past three days and two nights, this team has not met any outsiders. Previously, when they looked at the base from the top of Huangtou Ridge, they saw that the pedestrians in the base looked like ants.
It was not really clear. At this time, when they first saw human beings moving up close, everyone was overjoyed and felt as if they were in another world.
However, when everyone came closer with expressions of joy, they saw clearly that there were checkpoints and bunkers built on the platform. Those moving figures turned out to be several armed personnel holding Type 95 automatic rifles.
The armed men seemed to have seen Ning Xiaofan and the others a long time ago. They all looked wary. Several of them were hidden behind the bunker, with their guns pointed at everyone. Only one armed man who looked like the leader was standing there.
In front of the checkpoint, he stared at everyone with a cold face.
The guide leading the way seemed to know about this checkpoint, and he seemed to know the leader. He immediately stepped forward and said hello: "Brother Zhao, you are on duty today."
The man surnamed Zhao obviously knew the guide. He looked a little calmer and nodded slightly: "It's a small amount of money. Which team are you leading?"
"The team of Xinao Group..."
"Xin'ao Group? Well, you know the rules. Ask them all to show their passes."
"Okay, okay, I'll notify them right now..." the guide replied, then turned to everyone and said, "Everyone, take out your passes and prepare to pass."
After speaking, the guide repeated it again in fluent English.
Pass?
Ning Xiaofan was stunned when he heard this. He had never heard that a pass was needed to go to the base?
Ning Xiaofan felt confused and turned to look at Fatty and others. He saw that Fatty and others had already taken out their respective passes. The experts also took out their passes. Not only that, even Lao Wang and Xiao Shanzi also took out their passes.
Showed the pass.
Everyone has it, but he doesn't. Ning Xiaofan had a bad feeling in his heart.
At this time, Aunt Xiang saw that Ning Xiaofan had not taken out his pass, so she couldn't help but asked: "Xiaofan, what are you doing standing still? Where is your pass? Why don't you take it out?"
"I don't have a pass." Ning Xiaofan was also a little confused at this moment.
"No pass?" Aunt Xiang was slightly startled: "How is that possible? Didn't you attend the pre-departure meeting? There are checkpoints all around the base, and you must have a pass to enter. By the way, passes are issued to each team member before departure.
I’m a member, you didn’t get it, did you?”
When Ning Xiaofan heard what Aunt Xiang said, he couldn't help but smile bitterly and said: "I didn't know there was a pre-departure meeting, no one informed me to attend..."
"You didn't even attend the pre-trip meeting? As a member of the team, you must attend the pre-trip meeting. Since you don't have a pass, it will be difficult now."
There was a trace of anxiety that could not be concealed in Aunt Xiang's eyes. Ning Xiaofan did not know the situation, but she knew very well in her heart that the guards at the mining base were extremely strict. It would not be an exaggeration to describe it as "highly guarded". Without a pass, there would be no way.
This is the level in front of me.
You must know that the Shennongjia prospecting project is not just an investment by Xinao Group, but several multinational groups at home and abroad have invested huge amounts of money, so that this prospecting plan involves the interests of all parties. The number of prospecting quotas is limited, and the passes are even more limited.
Disbursed strictly in accordance with the investment ratio
With this premise, if you want to increase the quota, then sorry, you can only exchange it with benefits. In this way, the pass becomes extremely precious, and a thin pass even has a high price of millions internally.
In other words, even if the senior executives of Xinao Group want to enter the mining area, they must have a pass before they can be released. Otherwise, they will never be able to step into the checkpoint.
Right now, Ning Xiaofan couldn't get his pass. This was no ordinary trouble. If he couldn't get it right, he would have to stay in front of the checkpoint or go home.
"What to do, what to do, Xiaofan, this is really troublesome. You can't get in without a pass. Even if you... uh, the chairman comes forward, it won't be easy to apply for a new pass for you..."
Just when Aunt Xiang was looking anxious and angry, she heard a weak voice: "Aunt Xiang, he...his pass is with me..."
Those weak words came from the mouth of the little fairy lying on the stretcher. I don’t know when she woke up?
"Where is Xiaofan's pass? That's great, really, it scared me..." Upon hearing this, Aunt Xiang couldn't help but pat her plump chest, looking relieved.
Ning Xiaofan listened, but there was a trace of doubt in his eyes. He was not stupid. From Aunt Xiang's words, he knew that not having a pass was a big trouble. The problem was that before that, the little goblin didn't even say anything to him.
"Aunt Xiang, put my pass with his, take out mine too..."
The little goblin said weakly, and as his eyes moved, he glanced at Ning Xiaofan intentionally or unintentionally, with a complex look in his eyes.
Just when the goblin glanced at Ning Xiaofan, Ning Xiaofan was looking at her. As soon as their eyes met, the goblin's eyes flickered for a moment, and then he dodged away, giving people a feeling of guilty conscience.
When Ning Xiaofan touched her slightly evasive gaze, his mind flashed, and he suddenly thought of a possibility. Before that, she had been hiding the matter of the pass. Maybe it was a trick she wanted to use against herself.
When Ning Xiaofan thought about the insidious tricks that the goblin might use on himself, a layer of cold sweat broke out on his back. At the same time, anger surged in his chest, and he couldn't help but feel angry.
This damn little goblin is so insidious, hateful, hateful
Based on Ning Xiaofan's understanding of the little goblin, even though it was just a guess, he really didn't accuse her wrongly.
That's right, the little goblin had this mentality of punishing him, and planned to let this guy get to the bottom of the field and give him a good meal.
On this prospecting trip, even though Ning Xiaofan acted very calmly and pretended not to care, who is the little goblin? She is smart and cunning. How can Ning Xiaofan's little tricks escape her?
Eye
From the beginning to the end, Ning Xiaofan had no idea that he was under the surveillance of the goblin. Even the things he secretly checked about Shennongjia and gems on the company computer were all under the control of the goblin.
The little goblin mastered these little tricks of his with no effort at all. He just checked the history records on his computer and it was clear. Of course, the little goblin was even more aware of the H website he secretly browsed.
Precisely because the little goblin understood Ning Xiaofan's desire to go into the mining area to hunt for treasure, he naturally took aim and figured out such an insidious trick to deal with him. It was extremely accurate and hit Ning Xiaofan's weakness.
Thinking about it, Ning Xiaofan was full of the hope of getting rich. He went through a lot of hardships and trudged all the way to his destination. He looked at the dawn and had the hope of getting rich. In the end, he was blocked by a small barrier.
, come to the door without getting in
Once this sinister trick is carried out, Ning Xiaofan will not simply be defeated, but his hopes will be shattered, and he will fall straight from heaven to hell. It can be said that he is extremely sinister and cruel.
Fortunately, although Ning Xiaofan guessed the evil intention of the little goblin, the little goblin did not use this extremely sinister trick on him in the end. Otherwise, Ning Xiaofan would probably have no tears left and might even strangle her to death.
I have all my thoughts...
After showing their passes, everyone passed the checkpoint smoothly.
However, there was more than one checkpoint. At the foot of the mountain, everyone faced another checkpoint, and each time they passed a checkpoint, they had to get a stamp on the pass.
Ning Xiaofan didn't know what the purpose of stamping the pass was. After asking Aunt Xiang, he found out that it was a precautionary measure.
According to Aunt Xiang, before the end of the prospecting plan, people entering the base are not allowed to run around, especially in restricted areas that are restricted to entry and exit, such as the base gate, the entrance to the sinkhole, and some scientific research areas.
Stamping the pass can effectively prevent pass holders from breaking in at will.
After entering the checkpoint at the foot of the mountain, everyone got on several minibuses specially prepared by the base and drove towards the base.
The closer we get to the base, the tighter the security becomes. There is almost one post every three steps and one sentry every five steps. Even the atmosphere becomes a bit tense.
The outside of the base is like this, but I don’t know what it’s like inside the base?
Ning Xiaofan looked at the heavily guarded checkpoint and the armed security personnel with indifferent faces and extremely strict inspections. He was secretly surprised and a little scared at the same time.
According to his original idea, after entering the mining base, as long as the little goblin wanted to rectify himself, he planned to fall out with her, break up with her, and then find a way to sneak into the mining area to find the treasure.
It's a pity that the ideal is full and the reality is too skinny
If he really fell out with the little goblin, not only would he be unable to move forward, but he would also be kicked out, which would be an injustice.
